Richie Rude
The biggest risk I have taken:
Pulling a backflip on my bike. It was very scary but managed to get it first try, I was stoked.
Something I always bring out on a ride:
My phone and when i’m by myself i’ll bring my airpods.
Wildest encounter out on trail was:
Watching my mates stack it when following them. Usually they walk away uninjured

Stoked
When i’m not out racing dh you may find me out doing:
Hanging out with mates whether it’s riding or just messing around.
Most underrated place to go and why:
The mata peak in Hawkes Bay has some of New Zealand’s oldest and best flow tracks. Always good fun to go for a rip there.
